New Ruger

Finally got my revolver. I went thinking 44 mag, but came out with a 357. I'm very happy. Its the Ruger GP100. You know, they were selling stuff like hotcakes. The redhawk I was looking at before was gone, the blackhawk gone. They had the alaskan 44 mag, but Frankly it seemed a bit overkill at this time...although, if I could find one for a deal, I would consider it in the future as well.

I'm hoping to get out this weekend and see how she goes.
Not so good at pictures, but here they are! hahaha...did the preview...not sure if thats my feet! my boots are tan LOL

Nice. I am jealous and that is a great revolver. You can't wear a Ruger out in 3 generations so it will give you good service. That longer barrel is great for hunting small game like rabbits and ground squirrels. Also I hope you try some 100 yard shots with it. With that barrel length you will be impressed. Also, that gun with a nice 125 JHP is a great round for self defense and the recoil won't be too bad. It's a round my wife is comfortable shooting.

Ya, i was really wondering about the long barrel, but they had no 4.2's or 5.5's in stock...He went to the computer and nothing...and this is a pretty good sized store too. I had figured the run up was on semi-autos and rifles, but revolvers were going quick....they sold 2 other 38's while I was there today. SOooo...I kept looking at it...and I just fell in love. I decided when I get a concealed carry, its going to be smaller anyways and hammerless. So I got the big boy

I think this is my favorite one so far I wish i could take better pictures...its lots nicer in real life.

Very nice... At least the with the longer barrel it will make you a great hunting gun as well. Heck with the right loads, you could easily hunt Deer with it... I took a fairly large buck in 2005 with a .357mag with 180 grain hollow points. Dropped it in its tracks.

We all went out today...the family. I love that gun! My wife loves it too!! Lol...i have no ammo left. I got to say, I am really happy! Thanks for all the comments I do believe we will be getting one for her as well

That is a good gun for her. You should have her hold the SP101. That is a great gun and may fit her smaller hands a little better. The SP101 is easy to conceal too.

You can't do any better than the 357. 38 specials are cheap if you want to take a break and save some money. I own 3; a Colt Python, a 6 inch Smith 686, and a 4 inch Smith 686. I've retired the Python from use and mostly shoot the 686s now. I would like the Python to be handed down to my son or daughter once I've fired my last shot.
